Nginx/FPM/PHP all php files say 'File not found.'

Question

i just installed nginx 1.1.13 and php 5.4.0 on a centos 5.8 final 64bit machine. Nginx and PHP/Fpm are running, and I can run php scripts via ssh command line, but in the browser I keep getting 'File not found.' errors on all my PHP files.

This is how I have my nginx.conf handle PHP scripts:

 location ~ \.php$ { root /opt/nginx/html; fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/fpm.sock; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /opt/nginx/html$fastcgi_script_name; include fastcgi_params; } 

This is a direct copy/paste from my other servers, where it works fine with this setup (but they run older versions of php/fpm).

Why am I getting those errors?

Answer 1

Put "include fastcgi_params;" before all "fastcgi_param *" lines, "include fastcgi_params;" overrides all you "fastcgi_param *" lines (see nginx debug log):

location ~ \.php$ { root /opt/nginx/html; fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/fpm.sock; fastcgi_index index.php; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /opt/nginx/html$fastcgi_script_name; } 

Answer 2

I had the same issue.

What I did to solve this was to check the user running nginx, php-fpm and check their permissions for accessing the folder where the root is. It is be default 'www-data'.

but you can find out by using the ps aux | grep php-fpm and ps aux | grep nginx commands.

You have to make sure the folder is accessible to the user running these processes.

I had the same issue, and for me it was a misconfigure/non-existing "root" directive in the nginx server config

Answer 4

I use such configuration, wish it could help you. It works in OS X. As for me, @Xosofox 's answer worked. I mistyped the version of nginx 1.6.2 as 1.2.6, so that the root became a non-existing directory.

location ~ \.php$ { fastcgi_intercept_errors on; root /usr/local/Cellar/nginx/1.6.2/html; fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; fastcgi_index index.php; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /usr/local/Cellar/nginx/1.6.2/html$fastcgi_script_name; } 

Answer 5

I solve this problem by changing user and group tho the current user:group in php-fpm.d/www.conf

By default the user and group is 'nginx', change this....

Hope this helps
